Te Ara Minhinnick (Ngaati Te Ata) (she/her) @te__ara
Hailing from Waiuku between the Waikato & Manukau waters, Te Ara employs Indigenous methods of practice through concepts pertaining to her Iwi, Ngaati Te Ata. Growing up under the framework of ‘akona mā te wai’, ‘learning through the medium of water’, Te Ara hopes to apply the observations taught by the Taiao to her artmaking focusing on placemaking through the wayfinding hua-vessels of whenua, one and wai.

Ko Te Manukanuka o Hoturoa, ko Te Awa o Waikato ngā wai ora.
Ko Ngaati Te Ata te iwi.
